3. Submit official transcripts from every college/university attended as required by the OT program.  Many OT programs have multiple deadline dates (i.e., preferred, priority, or early decision) or operate on a rolling admissions process.

Outcomes

What can I do with this degree?

澳门六合彩高手 pre-professional students focusing in Occupational Therapy will prepare for a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (MSOT) or Doctorate of Occupational Therapy (DOT).

Common occupational therapy interventions include helping children with disabilities to participate fully in school and social situations, helping people recovering from injury to regain skills, and providing support for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes.

Occupational therapy services typically include:

• an individualized evaluation, during which the client/family and occupational therapist determine the person鈥檚 goals;
• customized intervention to improve the person鈥檚 ability to perform daily activities and reach the goals; and
• an outcomes evaluation to ensure that the goals are being met and/or make changes to the intervention plan.
